Grace of Sunshine

When June emerges through its gentle rise The cloak of sunshine bares an amber tint; Glimmering on our lush fields, that reprise A varnish of leaves, hued trees now imprint Morn's luster as crystal rays spill anew A dazzle, a blush like folks’ warm embrace While toddlers hop and prance amidst sweet dew, That frames of light imbue auroral grace : How birdsong on boughs chirp in reverence So effortless like this daybreak’s fresh array, Till prayers bless a god’s omnipresence Bestowing life in a heavenly way. Magnificent the grandeur of dome's beam Until it rests , hanging low yet agleam. Your best sonnet for John Hamilton's Contest Written 3/18/2018 : Repost 7/05/2018
